Abstract
Human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the first human oncogenic retrovirus to be discovered and causes two major diseases: a progressive neuro-inflammatory disease, termed HTLV-1 associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP), and an aggressive malignancy of T lymphocytes known as adult T cell leukemia (ATL). Innate and acquired immune responses play pivotal roles in controlling the status of HTLV-1-infected cells and such, the outcome of HTLV-1 infection. Natural killer cells (NKCs) are the effector cells of the innate immune system and are involved in controlling viral infections and several types of cancers. The ability of NKCs to trigger cytotoxicity to provide surveillance against viruses and cancer depends on the balance between the inhibitory and activating signals. In this review, we will discuss NKC function and the alterations in the frequency of these cells in HTLV-1 infection.

Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common adult non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and is highly invasive, with a poor prognosis. The main clinical treatment for DLBCL involves chemotherapy or a combination of chemotherapy and targeted drugs. CD56 expression is considered as an indicator of poor prognosis in patients with acute myeloid leukemia and anaplastic large cell lymphoma; however, its role in DLBCL remains unclear. We report on a patient with CD56-positive DLBCL/leukemia with BCL6/MYC double-hit, and DDX3X, LRP1B, SIN3A, and GNA13 gene mutations (stage IVA, prognostic index aaIPI = 2 points). The patient was treated with cyclophosphamide and prednisone pre-chemotherapy plus R-Hyper-CVAD AB and DA-EPOCH regimens. Lumbar puncture combined with intrathecal injection was performed to prevent central nervous system infiltration during hospitalization, and complete remission was confirmed. We also reviewed the literature to clarify the relevance of the unique clinical features associated with this case.

Abstract
Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1/CD56) is expressed on immune cells, myoblasts, and malignant cells, and there is a growing demand for the genetic detection of CD56 and CD56-targeted therapy. In the present study, we developed a novel peptide ligand (designated Natein) that binds to human CD56 by using T7 phage display technology. Natein recognized the extracellular region of CD56 and could bind to natural killer (NK) cells and CD56-positive (CD56+) cancer cells. CD56+ cells enriched from human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using biotinylated Natein-conjugated microbeads, similarly to CD56 antibody-isolated cells, demonstrated functional cytotoxicity against K562 cells. In addition, Natein could be used to stain CD56+ lymphoma cells in nasal-type extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma tissues similarly to a CD56 antibody. These findings suggest that Natein has the potential to be alternative to CD56 antibody that could be used for peptide-based cell isolation and diagnosis.

NCAM1/FGF module serves as a putative pleuropulmonary blastoma therapeutic target. Oncogenesis 2019; 8:48.

Abstract
Pleuropulmonary blastoma (PPB) is a rare pediatric lung neoplasm that recapitulates developmental pathways of early embryonic lungs. As lung development proceeds with highly regulated mesenchymal-epithelial interactions, a DICER1 mutation in PPB generates a faulty lung differentiation program with resultant biphasic tumors composed of a primitive epithelial and mesenchymal stroma with early progenitor blastomatous cells. Deciphering of PPB progression has been hampered by the difficulty of culturing PPB cells, and specifically progenitor blastomatous cells. Here, we show that in contrast with in-vitro culture, establishment of PPB patient-derived xenograft (PDX) in NOD-SCID mice selects for highly proliferating progenitor blastoma overexpressing critical regulators of lung development and multiple imprinted genes. These stem-like tumors were sequentially interrogated by gene profiling to show a FGF module that is activated alongside Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1). Targeting the progenitor blastoma and these transitions with an anti-NCAM1 immunoconjugate (Lorvotuzumab mertansine) inhibited tumor growth and progression providing new paradigms for PPB therapeutics. Altogether, our novel in-vivo PPB xenograft model allowed us to enrich for highly proliferating stem-like cells and to identify FGFR and NCAM1 as two key players that can serve as therapeutic targets in this poorly understood and aggressive disease.
